One card is drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability that the card drawn is a face card ?
A. $$\frac{3}{13}$$
B. $$\frac{4}{13}$$
C. $$\frac{1}{4}$$
D. $$\frac{9}{52}$$
Answer: Option A
Solution(By Examveda Team)
Clearly, there are 52 cards, out of which there are 12 face cards 4 jack, 4 queens, and 4 kings∴ P (getting a face card) $$ = \frac{{12}}{{52}}$$ $$ = \frac{3}{{13}}$$

The answer should be 3/13.
Since there are 12 face cards in a deck of 52 cards
Therefore= 12/52 = 3/13.
The answer should be 3/13.
Since there are 12 face cards in a deck of 52 cards (face cards are J, Q and K).
Therefore, P(getting a face card) = 12/52 = 3/13.
